Yes exactly correct. Looks like Barry lost his pocket piece.

Don't see two-sided ones very often.

Never encountered a counterstamp coin so I appreciate the information you guys have to offer on this. I don't know If this adds any value either way I plan on keeping it.
I'm also in canada so it's very cool to find something like this
